Ingredients

Servings

Add to Shopping List

Instructions

  1. Add the canned refried beans, sour cream, bacon fat, and hot sauce to a small pot over medium heat. Stir until combined, then keep stirring frequently as the refried beans continue to warm up.
  2. Note: If you’d like super smooth beans, take a moment to blend with an immersion blender. Or add to a blender and blend until smooth and creamy. 
  3. Once heated through, add the Velveeta cheese. Keep stirring frequently, until the cheese has completely melted. 
  4. Remove from heat and serve with tortilla chips. 

Notes

  • A cheesy note: I think 8 ounces of cheese is a good balance. You can taste the beans AND the cheese, with neither one overpowering the other. Of course if you prefer to add more or less cheese, I won’t judge.

  • A note on canned refried beans: Canned refried beans come in a variety of textures. I recommend choosing a smooth one vs. one that is slightly chunky. Though if you’d prefer some texture, who am I stop you? You can always take a moment to blend the beans before adding the Velveeta if you’d like super smooth beans as well.
